Summary
Rita Cosby breaks down the breaking news from South Carolina as Darlene Graham announces her run for the full Senate term, stepping up to honor the legacy of her late brother, Senator Lindsey Graham. The conversation then shifts to a terrifying incident in downtown Manhattan where an armed extremist attacked the ICE and immigration court building with gasoline and a pellet gun. Rita and her callers discuss how extreme anti-ICE rhetoric from politicians may be fueling this dangerous violence. Finally, Rita rips into NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani for his inflammatory comments about ICE and his bizarre pledge to attempt to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the UN General Assembly.
